摘要
Scymnus (Scymnus) hodeki sp. n. (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) is described and illustrated from Tamil Nadu, South India. It appears to be a specific predator of the aphid, Schoutedenia emblica (Patel & Kulkarni) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), a major pest of Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.). Notes on the life stages, biology, and natural enemies of the new species are also provided and illustrated. Other predators of the aphid are also listed and illustrated.
